The Dragon Dictate App on the iPhone seems to be a nice fit for those with low vision needs but falls short for those who depend on VoiceOver.

After agreeing to the Privacy and other agreements the App is pretty simple. You launch it it prompts you to tap to start recording. You do so and then simply tap the large red button on the bottom of the screen to stop the recording. It works a little bit and shortly there after you have a transcription of what you said. Using the Zoom feature its pretty easy to preview. Then simply tap the button in the bottom left hand corner and it will prompt you to send this via Email or Text Message. Its simple its fast and elegant for those using the Zoom Feature.

Unfortunately the App hears the VoiceOver or TTS engine and transcribes part of the prompts making the App less than ideal for VoiceOver users. But with a little improvement it could work and be a powerful tool.
